Statement</h3> <p>Music education and music educational institutions - as products of the society and culture in which they are created and function - preserve, maintain, transmit and reproduce socio-cultural values and inequalities embedded in their very structures, forms, discourses and content through curricula, learning materials, teaching methods and so on.</p> <p>We acknowledge that historically excluded and/or marginalized groups such as women and girls; ethnic, racial, linguistic and religious minorities; indigenous communities; the poor; individuals with disabilities; LGBTQIA individuals; vulnerabilities including those of low class/caste and those excluded from citizenship have systematically been un- or under-represented in formal education. This reflects wider discriminatory practices at the societal level that in turn are perpetuated and transmitted in educational institutions, which as such continue to shape society at large.</p> <p>Furthermore, in a number of societies globally, academic discourse and institutions continue to be shaped by and use methods inherited from European and North American music education systems, creating further layers of socio-cultural exclusions and discriminations perpetuated through their educational institutions.</p> <p>The Study Group is likewise informed by publications and guidelines produced by high-level international organizations, specifically:</p> <p>• UNESCO’s Policy Guidelines on Inclusion in Education of 2009, which advanced the need to reform current approaches to support and welcome diversity in order to develop more inclusive societies by taking a holistic approach to education reform, and which also stressed the importance of developing effective strategies for the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals.</p> <p>• The United Nations’ 2016 Report on the World Social Situation, Leaving no one behind: the imperative of inclusive development, which highlighted how no single actor or set of policies could singlehandedly promote social inclusion, and which drew attention to the importance of developing and promoting inclusive institutions where exclusionary attitudes are challenged in order to respond to the call to leave no one behind.</p> <p>In line with ICTM acting as a ‘bond among peoples of different cultures and thus contribut(ing) to the peace of humankind’, the MESI (Music, Education and Social Inclusion) Study Group proposes to serve as the place where these calls for action are addressed and discussed in the study of music and transmission practices in music educational settings at all levels. Given that music education and social inclusion are critical concerns for ethnomusicology, the MESI Study Group responds to the need for such discussions within the ICTM, giving specific focus to these issues within music educational settings and institutions.</p> <p>The main aim of the Study Group is to study, practice, uncover, produce, document and disseminate good practices in music education and transmission that can foster and promote social inclusion. In addition, it aims to engage in constructive discussions around systems-level approaches in music, education and related practices that can contribute to increased social inclusion, both in education and in global society at large.</p> <p>We believe the combination of the two approaches – a bottom-up approach in studying and uncovering good practices in music education and transmission, and a top-down approach in analyzing and constructively interrogating/examining music education structures and institutions – will lead to significant and actionable results for promoting and advancing social inclusion in the fields of music education and ethnomusicology.</p> <h4>Study Group Committee</h4> <ul> <li> <p>Chair: Sara Selleri (SOAS, University of London, UK)</p> </li> <li> <p>Committee Members: Marie Agatha Ozah (University of Port Harcourt, Nigeria), James Nissen (University of Sheffield, UK), Francis Ward (Dublin City University, Ireland).</p> </li> <li> <p>Regional Representatives: Olusegun Titus (North/West Africa), Perminus Matiure (East/South Africa), Yang Shuo (East Asia), Sayeem Rana (South Asia), Alexander Crooke (Australasia), Gertrud Maria Huber (Europe), Paolo Fernando Parada Ausquia Jr (South America).</p> </li> </ul> <h4>Links</h4> <p>MESI Group Facebook Page: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1797948260422608/">https://www.facebook.com/groups/1797948260422608/</a></p> <style type="text/css"> <![CDATA[/* ><!]]>*/ </style><style type="text/css"> <![CDATA[/* ><!]]>*/ </style></div></div></div><div class="view view-og-extras-nodes view-id-og_extras_nodes view-display-id-entity_view_1 view-dom-id-31b9d24df8c8004b7ac057a1b48bdbe6"> <div class="view-content"> <div class="views-row views-row-1 views-row-odd views-row-first"> <div id="node-5525" class="node node-group-post node-teaser clearfix" about="/group/ictm-study-group-music-education-and-social-inclusion/post/mesi-symposium-puerto-rico" typeof="sioc:Item foaf:Document"> <h2> <a href="/group/ictm-study-group-music-education-and-social-inclusion/post/mesi-symposium-puerto-rico">MESI Symposium in Puerto Rico Postponed Indefinitely</a> </h2> <span property="dc:title" content="MESI Symposium in Puerto Rico Postponed Indefinitely" class="rdf-meta element-hidden"></span> <div class="content format_text"> <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p>Dear MESI 2020 Prospective Participants,</p> <p>It is with a very heavy heart that we concluded we have no other choice but to suspend and postpone (indefinitely at the moment) our MESI symposium in Puerto Rico.</p></div></div></div> </div> <ul class="links inline"><li class="node-readmore first last"><a href="/group/ictm-study-group-music-education-and-social-inclusion/post/mesi-symposium-puerto-rico" rel="tag" title="MESI Symposium in Puerto Rico Postponed Indefinitely">Read more<span class="element-invisible"> about MESI Symposium in Puerto Rico Postponed Indefinitely</span></a></li> </ul></div> </div> <div class="views-row views-row-2 views-row-even"> <div id="node-5438" class="node node-group-post node-teaser clearfix" about="/group/ictm-study-group-music-education-and-social-inclusion/post/call-papers-2nd-official-symposium" typeof="sioc:Item foaf:Document"> <h2> <a href="/group/ictm-study-group-music-education-and-social-inclusion/post/call-papers-2nd-official-symposium">Call for Papers: 2nd Official Symposium of the MESI ICTM Study Group</a> </h2> <span property="dc:title" content="Call for Papers: 2nd Official Symposium of the MESI ICTM Study Group" class="rdf-meta element-hidden"></span> <div class="content format_text"> <div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><u>Call for Papers: 2<sup>nd</sup> Official Symposium of the MESI (Music, Education and Social Inclusion) ICTM Study Group</u></p> <p>The MESI Study Group will be holding its 2<sup>nd</sup> International Symposium at the Universidad Interamericana de Puerto Rico from 21-23 May 2020;
